Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 49

Mark Tremont gave a small smile. “She’s your elder sister. You shouldn’t be so petty.”

Aery Kinsey’s temper vanished when she saw him smile. Despite being upset, she suppressed it. Since she was unable to make him stay, she may as well act the part of a dutiful girlfriend.

“Then you can’t leave halfway again the next time…”

Mark Tremont did not reply, merely returning her an ambiguous look. However, his expression was neutralized at once when he turned around.

When he got back to the Tremont Estate, it was already half past eight. Arianne was famished but she brightened up when she saw him. “You’re back!”

With a faint hum, Mark Tremont went back to his room for a shower as per usual.

Looking at the dishes on the table that had lost their warmth, Arianne felt inexplicably down.

“Mama Mary, heat them up.”

When Mark Tremont came down again, the dishes were reheated. Mary could not hold back her tongue. “Sir, madam has personally made dinner today. Have a taste!”

There was no ripple of emotions in Mark Tremont’s gaze as he sat down at the dining table, knowing that Arianne was up to something.

Arianne spoke softly, “It’s fine if you’ve eaten outside.”

Mark Tremont picked up his cutlery and ate slowly. “Speak if you have something to say.”

Dumbstruck, Arianne did not know how to answer.

Losing his patience, Mark Tremont got up to go to his study room. The sound of him slamming the door could be heard clearly from downstairs.

Mary came over to see the barely touched dinner and felt sorry. “What a waste of these dishes… More importantly, what a waste of your effort… Ari, if certain matters will sabotage your relationship, it’s better to just let them go.”

Arianne shook her head. “Tiffany is my only friend. I remember how well she treats me. I can’t just disregard her. I’ll fight for it, I’ll do whatever it takes and whatever he wants me to do.”

Butler Henry who had always kept to himself and his tasks butted in from the side. “Madam, it’s sir’s birthday today. You’ve made a lavish dinner for something else but the occasion. It’s within reason that he’s angry.”

Arianne was stunned. She did not remember at all. From what she remembered, Mark Tremont did not celebrate birthdays…
